Also Metaphor did 2m in 8 months. Normally JRPGs are frontloaded, but it sold half in the first month and half in the next 7 months. I think it is doing quite well.

There is potential for the sales to be greater. Becoming an ATLUS 2nd pillar over SMT.

But I have a feeling ATLUS will release SMT6 on multiple consoles next time, and that could bring SMT back to 2nd.

Metaphor will beat mainline SMT and it won't even be close. With a Switch 2 version added, 5 million sales lifetime could be the floor.

But yes, SMT6 might change this if they increase the budget (especially marketing) and scope.

I don't think its certain that Atlus will port their games to Switch 2. They just announced Persona 4 on an Xbox showcase with no Switch 2 support. Atlus mostly make Shin Megami Tensei games for Nintendo platforms and the rest is PS, Xbox and PC only, for the most part.
